Hi Don,
Ok, I've tried everything except for the record button and reset
combination. I was told by a tech support person that you should not do
this unless you are on the phone with a tech support person. Thus, I left
that out of the equation for the moment. I really am clueless right now. I
am shown as connected to my network by the BN, am getting about 20 to 40 as
my signal strength, but I cannot connect to download mail or surf the
Internet. I even erased all my connection configurations and started from
scratch.
Thanks

John,
Sounds like you may have tried this, but try removing the card prior to
doing the reset. If that doesn't do it, try doing the reset while the card
is still in the unit.
As for the signal strength, the lower the number the better the signal. If
I'm close to my router I can get a signal with a number as low as 27 but 31
or so is more common.
If I'm a room or two away, the signal can drop to around 50 or so. I've
seen signals which work at about 65 however.
Unfortunately, it's only a relative indicator.
If everything else fails, you might try the reset Paul mentioned with the
record button held down while you press reset.
Note that this will probably require a reset of the clock, but it appears to
be the "ultimate" reset on the MPower which is what I believe you're using.
Don
